WINTER CARD | HERO ARTS

Hi everyone! Here is my little card for a few challenges. The cat stamp from Baby Animals by Hero Arts was masked and the scarf was hand drawn. I water colored the scarf with Festive Berries Distress Ink and also added little blush to his cheeks. Also stamped three hearts from Baby Animals  and sentiment from Everyday Sayings by Hero Arts. I also added splatters of black ink to finish the card design. :)

I hope you like it. Entering this card for A Blog Named Hero where the theme is Winter, AAA cards CAS Game #130 - Three of Something and CAS on Sunday #148 - Make a Christmas Card #2

Hello everyone! Today I have another card using Sizzix Floral Banner Thinlit Die by Sizzix Lifestyle. Recently I realized one thing about me i.e., I'm clean and simple but I also love creating funky and beautiful backgrounds. So, I asked one of my good friends to define my style and the reply was 'versatile'. Yep! I'm versatile! LOL! :)

ONE LAYER WATERCOLOR THANK YOU CARD | HERO ARTS

Hello my dear crafty friends! How are you doing? I've been granny sitting!! My Mom left for Hyderabad and she'll be back in June 1st week. So I went to my home, brought some stuff to craft because crafting keeps me sane! So I'm here with a water color card made last night with Hero Arts stamps and Camlin Brush Pens. You can click HERE to learn how to create beautiful backgrounds with Camlin Brush Pens. :)

HOW I MADE THIS CARD

• I started by stamping the cute animals from Hero Arts Baby Animals on Canson Watercolor paper. As you can see, I masked and stamped the images. Masking technique is my all time favourite!
• Next I water colored the images with Camlin Brush Pens. I tried No-line coloring but failed at doing it. So I went ahead and drew the outlines of the images with black pen.
• I also added a few details to the cat's shirt!
• I colored both the ears of the mouse in pink but my camera couldn't just pick up the colors well! Sorry!
• I also created the ground for the animals and created night sky with the same pens and added splatters white paint.
• Finally I finished the card by stamping the sentiment from Everyday Sayings in Archival Jet Black Ink.
• To embellish my card I added a few clear sequins.
• To add shimmer I applied Wink of Stella Clear to the cute baby animals.

A Non Traditional Holiday Card for Hero Arts Holiday Challenge | Video

Hello everyone! I LOVE Hero Arts products but I have a very few Hero Arts stamps in my stash. As soon as I saw their Holiday Cardmaking Challenge, I jumped in joy. I found the Baby Animals stamp set which is one of my absolute favorites! To create a holiday card I turned those fun banners into Holiday trees! ;)

I took a white card panel which is slightly smaller than the main card base and blended the background with Peacock Feathers Distress Ink. Next I added tiny droplets of white paint for snow! I then stamped the little cat and banners on another card stock with Archival Jet Black Ink which is a water proofed ink and water colored those images with water based markers. 

Next I fussy cut the images with scissors and adhered them onto the card panel. Finally stamped the sentiment from Everyday Sayings with Archival Jet Black Ink and finished my card off with sequins from Lucy's cards and Clear Wink of Stella Glitter pen :)

I love how this card turned out! I have also filmed a video for you from start to finish where I shared tips and techniques along the way! :)
